The Thief, the Witch, the Toad, and the Mushroom.

What a pleasant surprise. This is such a delight, do yourself a favour, really! How is this free? Keen to see more games from this developer!

LOVED this so much!! From the music to the art and notes-in-book parts, everything just made this such a perfect story experience. Noticing the subtle (and not so subtle) changes as I played through was the cherry on top! There are no wolves in Australia!

Extremely good. This story had me immersed from start to finish without fail and that is why I highly recommend. It's free after all too...

I will give this another chance if I am able to, but I didn't get the chance to play much due to soft-locking myself.. At the start of the game, I clicked the pronoun before typing the name, and so it auto-set the name to Charlie. Even when I tried to change it in the settings, it didn't apply to the story for some reason. I went further into the story to see if the problem persisted, but there is no way to restart a playthrough once it is begun, and you can only go back a certain amount of pages, so in doing so I soft-locked myself into the random choices I made without reading & the name Charlie... I also thought if I could skip through the story, I could start a fresh playthrough, but my game crashed twice in the process of going back & forth so I think I need to try this on another account sometime. I was really looking forward to playing! I do recommend to anyone who doesn't make the mistakes I did, you should have a smooth playthrough.

A surprisingly deep and atmospheric dark fantasy tale The Thief, the Toad, the Witch, and the Mushroom is a really well-crafted game that ended up surprising me. It blends rich lore with existential themes, cleverly playing with narrative expectations to create a very unique storytelling experience. What initially feels like a simple fairy tale quickly opens up into a narrative with branching paths, multiple endings, and plenty of twists. One of the strongest points of the game is its cast. The characters gain a lot of depth as you explore their different routes, and I found myself genuinely caring about them by the end. The game also heavily rewards thorough exploration. It gives you all the clues you need to piece the deeper mysteries together, provided you pay close attention and approach the story from slightly unconventional angles. The art style is absolutely fantastic. It works perfectly together with the music to build a moody, deeply engaging atmosphere that pulls you right in. Finally, I have a lot of respect for the development behind this. The creator utilized free, open-source tools and public domain materials to build this world, and the game itself is completely …

great game but please fix the soft lock where when the game starts again I can't press begin or continue.
